Anything made by Sennheiser is really good
[QUOTE=Levelog;48969063]Actually the HyperX Cloud is widely considered to be one of the only headsets worth buying... Sure you're talking about the set you think you are?[/QUOTE] I have the cloud 2, it is pretty decent but I have a problem with mine where if I'm using the built in 7.1 amp you can hear slight popping when a sound plays but just using the normal jack they sound great. If I could sort the popping then I would recommend it.
Wow, I was really hoping the thread title was the actual article name. At least they could tell you upfront what you're in for.
headsets suck get mic + headphone combos and ur set

[QUOTE=redBadger;48966382]Yet you all seem to these good and informative articles are the front page: [URL]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1490884[/URL] [URL]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1490872[/URL] [URL]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1490879[/URL] [URL]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1490854[/URL] [URL]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1490874[/URL] [URL]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1490851[/URL] [URL]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1490860[/URL] [URL]https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1490855[/URL] So yeah. Shut the fuck about about PCGamesN being shit because ya'll seem to ignore the decent articles they put out.[/QUOTE] Linking a bunch of articles doesnt mean they are decent magically. All I see is low effort shit you continuously see from them, maybe its not as flat out stupid as some of their more trash articles, but still. Its also not like game "journalism" is hard at all, which is why its so bad that they continue to fuck up one of the easiest fucking things on the planet. Like, they are fucking adults who cannot handle the easiest god damn thing. Im actually fucking shocked that the people who do it get paid, they actually get paid to sit their and just write about some games, but even with a paycheck backing them up, they still put in almost no effort and make garbage. They do that because they can just push more articles, get ad money from clicks, and call it a day. PCGamesN is shit, flat out just pure shit, dont care if theirs a few good articles here and their, its by far and large garbage. The fact a mod changed the title to what this article REALLY is should be all the more telling how fucking shit PCgamesN. I see higher quality shit about games from fucking /v/.
[QUOTE=Terragen;48970422]Really? Why if you don't mind me asking?[/QUOTE] They're open headphones vs closed, and I strongly prefer the cloth padding to the leather type stuff of the 280's.
Article's a lot better than you guys constantly bitching.
Mic + headphone purchased separately for quality in both might be the best for wired, but unfortunately is not an option for wireless. I really wish there was some kind of objective long term review of the quality of wireless headsets. I have a logitech G930 and while it's advertised for it's strong connection strength and interference resistance the thing disconnects constantly and generally just malfunctions constantly. Here's a list of reviewers who have mentioned this: - I really love the convenience of being able to get up from my computer and walk around while I'm talking to a friend or something and it's worth a drop in quality for everyday use to me but I can't seem to find anything reliable. Hell the best wireless headset I've used in terms of reliability was like a $40 wireless headset made of cheap plastic by Asus. [sp]also top quality mod title edit[/sp]

Criticism is a bitch ain't it?
[QUOTE=Zotobom;48966556]I quite like my Logitech G35: [t]http://s3.pji.nu/product/standard/800/403908.jpg[/t] Sturdy, neat buttons, nice sound, 7.1, great mic. I'd rather have a modmic to slap onto my M50x, but y'know. Shipping from the US and all that.[/QUOTE] I have one, 7.1 is pretty much a total joke and the right sides pretty messed up I love my AD500 though, they're awesome

They cover my big-ass ears completely so they're not just constantly pressing against my ears. Also helps the bass and sound quality in general imo [editline]24th October 2015[/editline] The microphone picks up literally fucking everything though

Now I have these [img]http://www.pro-sound.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/mdrv6lg.jpg[/img] less good sound quality but way more sturdy IMO And yeah, fuck PCGamesN. These 150$+ headphones aren't worth shit compared to the 50$ or so headphones I have [editline]25th October 2015[/editline] And forgot to mention, my mic is this crap: [img]http://litbimg.rightinthebox.com/images/384x384/201401/mziaba1388711905675.jpg[/img] KTV Microphone, and it's the most sensitive mic ever, but man do people hear me well with this
Surprisingly, out of all chineseware i got myself a pair of Defenders headset for 8 euros. The kicker? Microphone is superb for this price, as well as the sound isnt too bad. Having those being repedeatly bought when broke for 6 years, and i changed only 2 pairs. [editline]25th October 2015[/editline] [img]http://shop.by/images/defender_hn_875_1.jpg[/img]

It makes me feel really uncomfortable when I can't hear myself talk properly during voice chat. The microphone quality is impeccable though.
This publication just seems like uncreative garbage to me at this point. I don't get it. "Hey we are getting paid to tell you how great this thing is!"

Best mic I've ever had with separate headphones. Still using it today, wish they still sold them. [img]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31F8KZNSCGL._SY300_.jpg[/img]
